Jacques ROHAUT
Paris Drout - Salle n° 5

About the Item

Official Painter of the Navy appointed in 2010. Official Painter of the Armies appointed in 2000. Official Painter of Air and Space appointed in 1996. It was friendship and then the discovery of the art of painting that prompted Jacques Rohaut to visit Philippe Lejeune's studio in Etampes in the 1970s during his law studies. He also worked for a restorer of paintings. Emulation within what has become the "Etampes School" allowed him to continue the necessary learning before making many personal exhibitions: the first in 1984, at the Taylor Foundation (Paris), then at the Orangerie de Villeroy, at the VIP lounge for ministerial air links in Villacoublay, in Düsseldorf, at the Saint-Roch gallery (Paris), at the Musée de l'Ordre des Avocats (Hôtel de la Porte in Paris), at the Hôtel du Conseil Général d'Eure et Loire (Chartres), in the Jehan de Beauce tower of Chartres cathedral, at the Etampes Museum, at the Inès Bonlieu gallery, Guest of honor at several Salons in the provinces, he also regularly participates in major Parisian Salons: French Artists, Autumn, Comparisons. His profession as a lawyer practiced in Paris for thirty years, within the firm Ader Jolibois, inspired him many paintings of which the judicial life and the courthouses were the pretext; his country of birth, Morocco, allowed him to rediscover the lights that usually make up his paintings; the air and the sea are another source of inspiration. Among the main distinctions he has received: Bronze medal at the Salon de la Marine, Gold medal at the Salon des Artistes Français, Prix de la Fondation André et Berthe Noufflard (Fondation de France), Grand Prix du Salon des Invalides, Minister of Defense Prize, Eugène Piot Prize (Académie des Beaux Arts), 2nd Prize for Young French Painting (Reader's Digest Foundation), Grand Prix du Palais Salon (Palais de Justice in Paris). He has also received numerous awards and prizes in provincial salons.

Porte Rouge, 2006
By Antoni TAULÉ
Located in Atlanta, GA
Taulé was born in 1945 in Sabadell, Barcelona. His father imparted the taste for painting to Antoni as a boy as the young artist watched him paint. After his primary studies, he began studying architecture in Barcelona and graduated in 1970. In 1965, he arrived in Paris and worked in architectural firms. It was Sartre's Paris, the construction of Unesco, the year of Le Corbusier's death and the end of Chandigarh, the French Cinematheque and Antonioni's films. Since the age of 14, he has never stopped painting and made his first personal exhibition in 1966 at the Academie de Belles Arts in Sabadell. Upon receiving his degree in architecture, he worked on the construction of l’Université autonome de Barcelone for a year. In 1971, he was asked to work on the development of a large shipyard on the small island of Formentera. There he met Laetitia Ney of Elchingen, who he would go on to marry. He devoted himself entirely to painting, and Formentera, like Paris, became one of his favorite places in both his life and to work. His first exhibition in Paris was in 1975 with Mathias Fels, presented to him by Hervé Télémaque—showing many paintings of his young daughter Djamilla, then three years old. The exhibition was titled, Espace hors temps (Space out of Time), with a foreword by Alain Jouffroy. In 1976, Taulé exhibited Contre-Jour (Against Day) at Fabien Boulakia on rue Bonaparte with a preface by Gérald Gassiot-Talabot and in Barcelona at the Aimé Maeght gallery—an exhibition visited by Joan Miró and Alexander Calder. In 1977, he exhibited at the Beaubourg gallery, with then associates Nahon and Trigano. In 1983, he met Jorge Luis Borges and Julio Cortázar, who wrote the novella Fin d’étape (End of Stage) for Taulé That same year, he was named Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters) by Jack Lang...
